UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.

HARRY J. HAYS, OF ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA.

TOBAGCO -PIPIE.

Application filed September 27, 1919. Serial No. 326,783.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HARRY J. HAYS, a citizen of the United States, residin at Alexandria city, Alexandria county, tate of Virginia, have invented a new and useful Improvement for Tobacco-Pipes, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to tobacco or smoking pipe; the object of the invention is to place a reflector attachment to the pipe whereby there will be as much, if not more, satisfaction smoking a pipe in the dark as there is in the light. While smoking a pipe in the light the smoker is able to have absolute mental control of the smoking condition of the tobacco by vision of the smoke, this soothing eifect is denied one smoking a pipe in the dark.

My invention further relates to a guard placed on the pipe, with the surface properly mirrored and suitably arranged so that the glow of the burning tobacco will be conveyed to the eye of the user, at the same time preventing the wind from affecting the proper burning of the tobacco while automobiling, or in a gale.

With the above general object in view, my invention consists in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts as herein fully described, illustrated and claimed.

Figure 1 is a perspective view of plpe.

Fig. 2 is the rear view of pipe.

Similar numerals refer to similar parts throughout the views.

Fig. 1:-(1) showing the bowl of the pipe; (2) the mouthpiece thereof; (3) the reflector set in position to transmit the view of the inside of the pipe to the eye (4); (5) the hinge of reflector suitably attached to bowl (1).

Fig. 2:(l) showing the bowl; the reflector; (5) the hinge of the reflector suitably attached to the bowl (1). These parts may be composed of any suitable material and constructed and arranged in any desired manner.

It is apparent that modifications in detail and arrangements of my improvement may be made without departing from the spirit of my invention.

Having thus fully shown and described my lnvention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:

1. In combination with a tobacco pipe, a cover having a reflecting surface on one face thereof; the cover being adjustably attached to the pipe in such a manner as to enable operator to arrange the reflecting surface so that the light from the burning tobacco will be reflected to the eye of the smoker, substantially as described.

2. In combination with a tobacco pipe, a guard member having a reflecting surface capable of conveying the glow of the burning pipe charge to the eye of the user, substantially as set forth.

HARRY J. HAYS.
